Xenu Better Than That

MSNBC recently reported that John Travolta's decision to play middle-aged mom Edna Turnblad in a remake of John Waters' classic Hairspray is causing a controversy in the Scientology community. Why? Let's just say that the religion's founder, L. Ron Hubbard, wouldn't be a big fan of this year's gay Oscar theme....

A recent Rolling Stone article about Scientology reports that its founder, L. Ron Hubbard, felt that gays “should be taken from… society as rapidly as possible” because “no social order will survive which does not remove these people from its midst.”

While it's safe to say that LRH was probably not commenting on this specific decision -since, you know, he's been dead for twenty years now- Big John shouldn't be resting easy just yet. See, L. Ron is scheduled to be reincarnated any day now (Don't believe me? Go to any Scientology bunker, and check out the office they have waiting for him). And still, if for some odd reason that doesn't happen, John had better still keep a sharp eye out for the Commodor's Earth-bound, Operating Thetan 7 enforcer.
